Requirements

• Smoke-free and fragrance-free while on the job

• About Our Family

• We are a warm, welcoming couple in North Dallas who value organization, professionalism, and a home that feels both beautiful and well-managed. We enjoy hosting family, entertaining guests, and celebrating the seasons with thoughtful details throughout our home. Our sweet golden doodle is an important part of the family, and we love spending time with our granddaughter when she visits.

• With busy schedules, ongoing household projects, and plenty of moving pieces, we are looking for someone who can bring greater structure, organization, and consistency to our day-to-day lives. We have many ideas in motion and would love the support of someone who naturally takes initiative, creates practical systems, and turns plans into completed tasks.

• Our goal is to build a collaborative, long-term relationship with a proactive professional who welcomes fresh ideas and confidently takes ownership of responsibilities.

• We already have a trusted cleaner and landscaper in place, so this role focuses on the things that tend to fall through the cracks — errands, meal prep, seasonal transitions, and vendor coordination. Our standards are high, and the relationship is built on trust and discretion.

• Who You Are / What We’re Looking For

You bring an executive assistant’s mindset to the home: you anticipate needs, manage details with precision, and keep things running seamlessly behind the scenes. You likely bring:

• A gift for turning busy to-do lists into clear, manageable action plans
• Exceptional attention to detail and the judgment to reprioritize when plans shift
• Confidence owning responsibilities from start to finish without constant direction
• Polished communication, proactive updates, and comfort with shared digital calendars and task systems
• A creative eye for seasonal details, hosted gatherings, and occasional professional events
• Emotional intelligence and a calm, steady presence

Key Responsibilities

• Because this is a part-time role, not every task below will happen every week. Each week’s focus will vary based on our schedule and priorities. As the working relationship grows, there is potential for additional hours and responsibilities.
